EOS Lip Balms

In the few weeks running up to our trip to New York I began to think if there was anything particular I wanted to buy whilst I was over there. To be honest our list of things to do and see was crazily jam-packed so I wasn't sure whether there was much capacity for a full day of shopping at Bloomingdales or Saks. Unlike my previous trips I really wasn't that fussed about hitting up every big department store and even though we definitely found time to pop to Macy's on our final day I think I was more excited visiting the numerous Duane Reades and CVS drugstores on every corner and accumulating a little haul of these EOS lip balms!

These Evolution of Smooth lip balms have become another one of those US cult beauty products over the last few years and even though they are readily available in the UK from Selfridges and a few other sites online, New York offered me a much wider choice of flavours and a much friendly price tag - a couple of dollars versus six or seven pounds! These sorbet-shaded spheres house a 100% natural lip balm packed with antioxidant-rich vitamin E, soothing Shea butter and jojoba oil. They are fun, available in an array of lip-pleasing flavours and do the job at conditioning and softening your lips. They have all the same playfulness of the Maybelline Baby Lips and if you like to slip something colourful and fun into your handbag to keep dry lips at bay then you can't go far wrong with an EOS lip balm or two! Sweet Mint is probably my favourite - it reminds me of all the buttery sweetness of Murray Mints!

Have you tried any of the EOS lip balms?

These are my favourite lip balm, i find them so moisturizing to my dry cracked lips. They are the first lip balms not to make my crack lips worse.

I'm obsessed with lip balms and not only are these the cutest ones I've seen, they're also one of the best, in my opinion, for moisturising. I think I've got about 9 of them; mint, lemon, and tangerine are my 3 favourites!

I'm desperate to try these sometime! They look so nice and fun, definitely need 'em in my life! x

The colours are all so pretty and pastel! Ahh I have tried one of these ages ago and I never re purchased any as I wasn't keen on the scent! Mint sounds amazing.

These are amazing! I discovered them when i was visiting family in Canada, Never had such soft and moist lips, and it lasts ALL day, which for a lip balm is incredible!!

Saw this in John Lewis the other day, looks great but I wonder how much they help with chapped lips.

I love EOS Lipbalms - I just wish they were cheaper and easier to get hold of in the UK

I've never tried an eos lip balm before but heard so many people raving about it. I've never strayed from my Carmex lip balm so it'd be nice to make a change and try one of these. The mint one sounds lovely.

I got one for christmas and love it! So handy to chuck in your bag and does wonders for my lips. I don't like how grubby mine can get. I have the pale blue colour and have to be careful with the grub. xoxo

They are brilliant but sadly they don't work for me as I've gotten some allergy reactions from them!

Even though I love the EOS balms, Balmi do amazing alternatives and I think the formula is slightly better as it is more 'moveable' on the lips x

Hey Milly,

Great post as usual.

I have two of these, Unfortunately i paid £7 EACH :( from Topshop in Meadowhall (Sheffield)

I have the Blueberry and the Sweet mint also - The sweet mint is my favorite sent i think, it kind of makes my lips tingle slightly which i really like! They are pretty great lip balms too - I thought they might be rubbish and all about the packaging but they really moisturize my lips!

Love Leanne xoxoxo
